Overview Information Upcoming Pioneers Institutional Partnerships Exhibitions Educational Programs Publications Media Programs






The primary activities of Slought Foundation in Philadelphia are frequently complemented by international projects in cities such as New York, Berlin, Venice, and Paris. All of these programs demonstrate our commitment to contemporary cultural life, and the importance we place on cultivating cross-cultural collaborations and institutional partnerships that enrich and expand our understanding of contemporary practice.

Rather than conceiving of our public as homogeneous, we undertake each project and institutional partnership with the intent of engaging and establishing relationships with new and emerging publics.
